Work Will Never Set You Free Songtext
von Chokecherry

I′m drunk by the time that I get home
All this penny-pinching working life is eating up my soul
Work and pray but don't forget you′re just a slave
How come no one ever warned me that life was going to be this way?

I'm Riding down a snowy road
I've got a hundred cans of black label knocking around in my bones
I locked my bike as my eyelids froze
And how come all these car headlights make me feel so alone?


I go down to a fire on the banks of the river
Throw a rock into the Mississippi cold and silver
There′s got to be another choice for a better life
Than this working nine-to-five and drinking just to stay alive

But no matter what they tell you
Work will never make you free
We′re wasting our whole lives
Harnessed to this horrible machine
Don't despair don′t give up
Hold on to what you really need
Revolution starts in our daily lives
With some of that good old anarchy
